Given that the directrix is at y = 4 and the focus is at (0, -4), then the vertex is at (h, k) = (0, 0).
p is the distance between the vertex and the focus and between the vertex and the directrix = 4 and since the focus is below the directrix, p is negative, i.e. p = -4
Equation of a parabola is given by (x - h)^2 = 4p(y - k)
Therefore, the required equation is (x - 0)^2 = 4(-4)(y - 0)
x^2 = -16y
y = -1/16 x^2
Since this is a linear function, filling in the minimum and maximum of the domain is sufficient.
f(-4) = -16 + 9 = -7
f(2)= 8 + 9 = 17
So the range of the function (given the domain) :
R = {-7, 17}
5^12/5^6 Is the correct response. When equal numbers with different exponents are divided then the you must subtract the exponents.
Thus 12-6 = 6.
True is going to be the correct answer.
90-30=60 Hoped this helped
